You can just copy the data out of the whole chip with dd if=/dev/mtdblock/n
of=imagefile count=<size of chip/512>
If you have image files of the the two filesystems thewn you can
concatenate them just with cat (cat image1 image2 > combinedimage),
but this might not lead to the right spacing on the chip (it assumes
no gap between the two images which probably isn't the case)
